DALYAN BOAT TOUR

Sail across the lake to the delightful town of Koycegiz, with a stop for swimming en route. Around midday, we arrive in Koycegiz, where you can explore the typical Turkish market and enjoy a traditional Turkish meal in one of the many small restaurants. In the early afternoon we sail to the small village of Sultaniye, famous for its hot springs, which are reputed to be a cure for many skin ailments, arthritis and rheumatic disorders. After the hot springs, try a mud bath and you will feel how soft your skin is afterwards. From Sultaniye to Dalyan is just a short journey, so we have time to make a final stop in the lake for swimming to wash off the last of the mud. This is a great trip to take if you want to see and do a lot of different things in one day.

BBQ NIGHT TOUR

In the later afternoon, we sail upstream to the lake of Koycegiz. In a small quiet bay, we will anchor and give you the opportunity to swim in the cool waters, while the captain builds the fire for the delicious BBQ. After we have all dried off and begun to feel a bit peckish, the starters (meze) will be ready to be served. It’s a fantastic experience to eat under the open night sky and we may even get to wish on a shooting star, if we are lucky. Soon the tantalising aroma of freshly cooked food permeates our nostrils and we settle down to enjoy a delicious main course of barbecued fish. After dinner, the trip continues on to the local thermal hot springs where you can relax in the hot springs or have a mud bath.

JEEP SAFARI

After the general safety briefing from the guides, once everybody has fastened his seat belts the safari can start. The first part is over country lanes through small Turkish villages. The area is known for its cotton fields, citrus farms and amber trees. We have a short break in the Amber forest you can smell the unique odour of the amber tree. Let's off road, into the mountains to the hidden spring of the Yuvarlak river. To reach the spring you have to walk a short part through the shallow fast running cold river. The spring is hidden under a huge old tree; you can see water flowing abundantly. A short ride on to the small restaurant where you will be seated on platforms build over the fast running cold river. You imagine yourself in a different world enjoying your trout or lamb kebab from the oven. After lunch the safari takes you to a different Turkey. The real heavy off road part starts now. Hold on tight and enjoy. Once again on more stable road you can enjoy the great views. On our way to the remote idyll Asi Bay we stop to have a cup of tea with a Turkish family. At Asi beach you can enjoy the beach, sea and relax or swim the dust out. The best view in the world is visible during our safari. At the end of the day we will reach the top of the Gokbel mountains and you can see the miracle of the Delta, the calbis river connecting to the Mediterranean Sea. Slowly we drive back to Dalyan and you can look back on a fantastic day out with good pictures and lots of dust and water.

RAFTING

In 1,5 hours you meet your guides and the other rafters at the raft base near the small village of Akköprü. At the base will be a break and you’ll be offered breakfast. Once everybody has the required gear, life jacket and helmet, you hop on the minibus with the rafts on top which will take you in 1,5 hour to the start point of the rafting. The minibus safari leads over dirt roads through some small Turkish villages. At the start point you get a safety briefing and then off you go on the wild running class 3 Dalaman river. The river starts easily so you can get used to all the comments that are being used on the river. The second part is more wild, and there are enough opportunities to jump off the raft and have a swim in the river. Some times you go on shore and have a relax swim in a freezing cold water or you can make rock jumps. A 2,5-hr rafting on the river will finally bring you down to the village of Gürleyik and that’s the end of the adventurous and exhilarating trip. There, you can put on dry clothes, and while you enjoy your late lunch you can watch the video of your rafting trip. Then it’s time to say goodbye and return to Dalyan for a well-deserved rest after an active day.
